Wing to left at rear with coupled and stacks. 2 storeys; irregular fenestration of 3 windows on 1st floor and 4 windows on ground floor, casements with segment-heads. Entrance with late C20 half-glazed door in right return front. Interior: Remains of upper floor hall with moulded beams and cornice in bedroom of rear wing. Uniform scantling roof above with braced collars but no purlins and no evidence of there having been any purlins. Evidence of timber- framing throughout building.
